I agree but you have to take into account that this was done in a bit of a rush so that my husband could have the enjoyable, comfortable holiday he craved. I believe he knew it was very close to the end although quite as close as it turned out to be, I think not.

DD I have nothing but sympathy for your plight, believe me.
We have all bought stuff in a hurry, or not even in a hurry, and ended up in the same boat. We recently bought an induction hob from John Lewis which just didn't work properly. It did for a very short while. Had a bit of a game getting it replaced which eventually involved my physically taking it out and handing it over in the shop, where they didn't really want it.
But you can't do that with your caravan.

Dooooo hope you get it sorted soon.

@Stanleysteamer we have just looked at a property on Zoopla just north of Stoke on Trent. Bungalow for £175k with drive and garage. I think we may take a wander up that way next week as it has potential

Nice one mate! hope it suits!

We shifted 2 of the 3T out of the Sacks and into the patio foundation and then my lad called it "quits" as he was sunburnt and too tired/hurting.
So I am back home and cutting up my Scaffold Boards to mount on my Wall in the Mini-Barn.

Dried pigeon poop is very hard to get out of a carpet...

Can we know how the poop got on the carpet?

It sounds a bit fishy whatever it is!

it's a scottish fish dish - finnan haddie (smoked haddock to you lot) mixed wi' spuds and, I think, some onion.

Well this a.m. was a bit eventful.
Wifey has found out her blessed parcel still hasn't arrived at son's place in Paris.
So she got all emotional and started talking about suing Parcel2Go etc.
She has a habit of going from A to Z without passing through B, C etc.
AND, worse than that, she got onto me BEFORE BREAKFAST. Hanging offence!!!

Looks like either the French concierge has nicked it, or some other frog git has nicked it. This is not the first time a parcel we have sent to friends in Paris has gone missing. The barstewards.

A hand knitted cardigan and a silver locket, family heirloom.
Allegedly they tried to deliver it 4 times but no one ever turned up to deliver.
We shall see. I hope stepson goes into the Chronopost office with all the paperwork and a hand grenade!

Think it might be, they do do a lovely smoked fish soup whose name in Gaelic escapes me, this might be it!

One of the useless facts picked up by teaching children from all over the British Isles.

For a desert, try cranachan if you ever see it on a menu offering it down your neck of the woods. Lovely!
